Learning outcomes
Evaluate engineering problems involving heat conduction by selecting and applying the appropriate tools to model the problem and identifying ways of controlling the system to get the desired outcome.
Select and use appropriate models and tools in order to predict the performance and know how to alter a system to achieve a desired effect in problems involving energy transfer in a fluid medium.
Analyse situations involving mass transfer by exploiting the analogy with conductive and convective heat transfer.
Analyse systems and devices that are widely used in engineering practice to effect heat transfer between fluids.

Assessment summary
Continuous assessment: 40%
Final assessment: 60%
This unit contains hurdle requirements that you must achieve to be able to pass the unit. You are required to achieve at least 45% in the total continuous assessment component and at least 45% in the final assessment component. The consequence of not achieving a hurdle requirement is a fail grade (NH) and a maximum mark of 45 for the unit.
